^^ I am on CM-8.2alpha and Angry birds play OK. In earlier version (leshak-2.1), I had problems getting it to install.

Not much into playing videos on this phone, but I did get similar error messages on my earlier eclair2.1

Hello all,

I think u all r enjoying ur respective spica....

My 1st problem is that i want to play movies(typicallly 699mb) in my spica but it doesn't play & gives error "Can't play, Unsupported Media file"

While video songs of the avi, mp4 hq format are playing on this phone(size<=120mb only).

I hav also converted to lowest mp4 quality(Prison Break 1st season episodes, 160mb), still it doesn't play that.

My 2nd prblm is that i want to play angry birds game in my phone, so to which CM or 2.1/2.2 should i upgrade to play dis game?

Thanx in advance.

P.S.: I m using 2.1 eclairs from leshak.

Is it Really playable??

I'm using a patched version of angry birds, it is a tad bit laggy and all the extra effects (feathers falling out) are off.

Try RockPlayer , it plays all files IMO ...

Surprisingly angry birds is running butter smooth on CM (I'hv installed intercept 3D drivers too) also ninjump which used to lag a lot is playable now :)

Today itself my phone was acting weird , almost every app force closed ! ADB launcher was not working and what not !! It was laggy as hell ...

Then I moved data to ext2 partition from ext4 , read somewhere tht CM isnt compatible with ext4 partition ... phone is super quick now :clap:
 
Installed CM alpha 8.3. Running smooth as of now. Tried wi-fi tethering. Pretty handy with my Docomo 3G connection for the odd time the internet is not working. Thanks to DJMykey for helping me out yesterday! :)
 
Proxy support is there but we cannot provide a username and pass. So much for proxy support :|

Thanx dennis, cooldude, abhifusion for replying....

Guys, i have a lil problem here, I have vodafone EDGE connection on my spica, I am able to access internet using the stock browser, But i'm not able to use the EDGE with the apps, Market,gmail,fb app says that i dont have internet connection. :( Please help
 
Thats cause you are using Vodafone LIVE. You need Vodafone Mobile Connect for full access to everything ....
 
^ +1 ... dont vodafone guys charge heavily for vodafone live ?? Airtel live charged me 29Rs for ~2mb download ! sick bastards :-|
 
now that my zen M25 is my primary phone, have decided to play around with my stock spica

Need - fast & stable ROM.

What should work :

Camera

GPS ( critical - currently being used as my car GPS)

browsing

Phonebook, calling & SMS

I'm tired of it lagging all the time, hence this step.

And point me to a tutorial on what to do with the stock phone. I have a lappy running 64 bit windows 7 :ashamed:
 
^^ apply the new Cyanogen mod alpha8.3 with CKmod kernel, intercept 3D drivers, SSSwitch, compass and GPS fix. With these, we get the most stable Spica 2.2 ROM ever.

My quadrant score 710-720 :)

PM me for more details.

^^^Thanks abhifusion, but that suggestion is already in the link provided :)

BTW, are you on eclairs or froyo, what configuration do you have?
 
me on the stock eclair rom :)

thanks for the advice guys, will update once my 16GB card is here ( I believe that the card should not be changed once the fw is flasher ( esp with apps2sd right?)

With Froyo I don't think you have to rely on Apps2SD. It supports moving applications to SD card. Tried swapping cards on a Zte blade, if works if you copy contents of your old card to new via PC.
